Oregon Home – Houseboat Cover & Feature

If you’ve never been to Portland, you might not know of the copious amounts of houseboat communities. For this cover story for Oregon Home magazine, I got to visit three communites in the area. Each one was very different with it’s own set of character and charm. One common thread between them all, really nice [...]
Portland Monthly May 2011 – Rich Living

The May 2011 Portland Monthly is out and there is a great feature story I shot of Andy Ricker’s place in SE Portland. Ricker, the restaurateur responsible for Pok Pok, Ping, Whiskey Soda Lounge, and, Pok Pok Noi; has one of the coolest bachelor pads I’ve ever seen. Designed by Andee Hess of Osmose, the space has a ton [...]
2010 Cyclo-Cross Nationals – Bend, OR

It’s snowing in Portland today and that reminded me of the time I went to Bend in December to see the 2010 USA Cyclo-Cross Nationals. Cold, wet, mud, all combined with fierce competition to make this a truly exciting event to watch and shoot. I shot it for fun, but I like how these shots [...]
Getting it Done with The Works

It’s been pretty busy summer here at LB Photo. Some great editorial work is coming out soon, but in the meantime I thought I’d recap some recent commercial work. The Works is an amazing contractor and remodeler based in Portland, OR. They’ve been responsible for making some of the wonderful glamourous interiors designed by Jessica [...]
Cannon Beach

I love the coast in Oregon. This was shot in January and it looks warm and pleasant as a mid-summer day. Available in the Archive
Portland Monthly – Harpoon House

The August 2010 issue of Portland Monthly just came out and I am really excited about this tearsheet from it. This custom built modern home, nicknamed Harpoon House, designed by Matt Kirkpatrick and Katherine Bovee has only 704 square feet of livable space. Shooting was really cool experience because it felt much larger than that. [...]
Crooked River Redux
I had a hard drive failure a year or so ago and lost a whole chunk of personal work. Some of the shots were from my first trip to Smith Rock in Eastern Oregon. The high rez of one of my favorites is totally lost forever and only exists on this old post. I’ve gone [...]
Florida Room Keeps it Real
Lauren and I just moved to the Piedmont neighborhood of Portland. There’s some great restaurants and bars nearby including the infamous Florida Room. The sign really sums it up nicely. In case you’re wondering, I shot this with my point and shoot in JPEG mode. No adjustments or photoshoppery here!Lauren and I just moved to [...]
Harvesters
So, my Dad calls me the other day and tells me he and my Mom are going to become wind farm developers in New Mexico. If you know my parents, this will give you a bit of chuckle. After all, they built a spa in their backyard from a garden shed. But, I have faith [...]
The Bachelor
From our trip last week to Bend, OR. We had great weather for most of our trip, but this little outing to Lava Cast Forest brought us some periodic showers. We kept putting our cameras away as the sprinkles turned to heavy drops. It’s hard to tell at this image size, but there are streaks [...]
Portland Spaces Summer 2009 Cover Feature & More
Hot of the press, the latest issue of Portland Spaces features some beautiful interiors and furniture from Portland based designers. I had the pleasure to photograph two stories for this issue and both turned out fantastic. It also gave me a glimpse into the design scene here in Portland and I have to say it [...]
April-May Portland Spaces
Here are some tearsheets from the April-May 09 issue of Portland Spaces. The first three are for the Spacemakers section called Good Life. It features the home of Stephanie Sheldon-Nevarez (who I shot a year ago for Portland Monthly) and Thomas Nevarez. Stephanie owns a great post modern antique store called Noun and their house [...]
B is for… Barbour
Had to do it. It’s not often a feature story you photograph starts with a big letter of your last name. In this case, the March 09 cover feature of Portland Monthly start’s with the title,”B is for Bacon”. This food piece was an awesome assignment to shoot. Not only did I discover many of [...]
